IMPORTANT NOTICE

A Note About Accessing Audiovisual Material

Many of the moving images and recorded sounds in UCLA Library Special Collections represent unique content that does not exist in any other format anywhere else. Therefore, please allow for additional lead time when requesting audiovisual materials. Similarly, if you discover AV material on-site when reviewing a collection in one of our reading rooms, please understand that there will be a delay before you can access it. Preservation assessment of the material is required to determine if safe playback is possible without damaging the original recording. If safe playback is not possible, library staff will contact you with digitization options or alternate viewing solutions. Thank you for your understanding as we work together to ensure the best possible care for our collections.
